Typically e.g. the performance of a vSwitch | +| | depends on the number of flows running through it. Also | +| | performance of other equipment or entities can depend | +| | on the number of flows or the packet sizes used. | +| | The purpose is also to be able to spot trends. Test results, | +| | graphs ans similar shall be stored for comparison reasons and| +| | product evolution understanding between different OPNFV | +| | versions and/or configurations. | +| | | ++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+ +|configuration | file: opnfv_yardstick_tc001.yaml | +| | | +| | Packet size: 60 bytes | +| | Number of ports: 10, 50, 100, 500 and 1000, where each | +| | runs for 20 seconds.
